Crime Scene clean-up

 

Crime-scene clean-up services require speciazed training. No employee should be placed in a position to be exposed to blood-borne pathogens without first:

  • Receiving BloodBorne pathogen (BBP) training
  • Having a written BBP exposure control plan
  • Having been provided personal protective equipment
  • Having been offered Hepatitis B vaccine and exposure evaluation and follow-up
  • Being provided with a method to remove and properly store the bio-hazardous waste in properly marked containers for disposal at an approved site

Only after these five steps have been talken can an employee be required by his or her employer to clean a bio-hazardous/crime scene.
